    Most of the leftists I encounter in my country that are not in the main party and the vocal sorts are all in this “hardcore, “everyone is a revisionist but me” org” sorta thing already it’s kind of sad

      Doubly so because we also have actual armed maoists in the country who are illegal and these people call them revisionist too

        Ah that sucks. Well at least you have some armed Maoists possibly doing good work? Around here the orgs that call themselves Maoist are 100% MLMs that rationalize themselves into near-complete inaction.

            Well I don’t know where parent lives and it’s hard to make assumptions. Some of the armed Maoist groups have problematic habits like picking violent fights with what they would call opportunists, like killing CPI(M) members in India. But there’s a diversity of Maoists (including in India) internationally so it’s hard to broad brush.
